i've been seeing little items about Sun's Jan 13th intro of new low end machines. one saying that the sub $5K box and even the sub $3.5K box runs Open GL twice as fast as an O2. does anyone know how many procs in the $20K box?

"A reader described Sun's planned January 13 workstation introductions in more detail (a $20,000 Ultra 60
multiprocessor with advanced graphics is also due):

1.Darwin Ultra 5 (under $5000), Ultra 10 (under $10,000)
2.3 or 4 PCI slots
3.UltraSparc IIi at 270 or 300 MHz
4.64MB ECC RAM
5.4GB (UltraSCSI?) disk
6."breakthrough graphics performance"
7.10/100 Ethernet
8."packet-switched crossbar architecture"/1.6GB bandwidth
9.Solaris 2.6 with Desktop Extensions, Java virtual machine and Netscape Navigator
10.Run PC applications via PCI DOS card due next summer, SoftWindows 95 or Ntrigue application
